Video Card Question

I'm ready to get a video card for my PC and am looking at the Radeon 7500, 64MB PCI card. Anyone know if this card is compatible with WC Prophecy & Secret Ops, as well as WCIV, P2 and UE?. Anyone know if there are problems with this card, or know of a better PCI card? Thanks.:)

AFAIK, Yes (no Glide for you, though, pobrecito).

Thanks, but what does that mean, no Glide. How do I get "Glide", what is it? Thanks.

Glide is (the now defunct) 3Dfx's proprietary graphics API. It is only available to use on Voodoo-based cards, and only for use w/ games that support it (WCP/SO; ?UE...) It is/was arguably tastier than running Direct 3D, software, or OpenGL modes. There are some "wrapper" programs out there that can run it off a non-Voodoo card, but AFAIK, they're not real reliable.
